Michelangelo, the Heart & Leonardo, the Balance

Michelangelo, the Heart & Leonardo, the Balance Commander Deck

The deck revolves around flooding the board with Mutagen tokens and using multiple counter-doubling and counter-amplifying effects to stack enormous numbers of +1/+1 counters on creatures, with Michelangelo, the Heart and Leonardo, the Balance working together so that each token created triggers a board-wide counter distribution that compounds exponentially. Cards like Doubling Season and Corpsejack Menace stack with the commanders and enchantments like Hardened Scales to make every token and every counter placement geometrically more powerful, while Raphael, the Muscle can double all damage dealt by countered creatures for a lethal swing. The deck wins through overwhelming combat damage, often closing games with Triumph of the Hordes for an infect finish or by using extra combat effects and keyword-granting abilities to push an unstoppable army of massive creatures through for lethal.
